CD Cover Artworks (Policy?)
Hi, I saw many CD Cover Artworks at http://www.debian.org/CD/artwork/ But, many of them doesn't contain: - License - *.xcf or any editable version I think, that if an artwork has a link it would be nice, if it has at least any license about the usage of it. Eg. who can use it, can I modify it, etc. And I think also, that an artwork in .jpg or .png is unusable. Because, the debian CD set contains seven CD's not one. So, if sy. make an artwork, he should do: a; 7 front + 7 back .jpg multiply by 11 (+1 source) archs, and my multiply by 2 because the .jpg and the .png format or b; put out an .xcf file, where I can change the arch's name and the serial number.

NONUS?
Dear Debian CD team, I read the FAQ concerning the "NONUS" and non "NONUS" versions of cd images of Debian linux distribution, but I just can't figure out which one should I download. I am a citizen of Poland and I don't know if in the FAQ "everybody" meant everybody worldwide or just the US citizens? So my question is: "Should I download the "debian-30r0-i386-binary-1.iso" or "debian-30r0-i386-binary-1_NONUS.iso" cd image?" Thank you. Best regards, ErykD -- Na dobry poczatek dnia... >>> http://link.interia.pl/f1629

The only reason not to use the NONUS cd image instead of the US cd would be if you were afraid of the possible legal repercussions for having access to crypto software some countries dont want their people to have privacy.

Hi Eryk, "Everybody" means "everybody"! ;-) You should download the "debian-30r0-i386-binary-1_NONUS.iso" image.

Well, that used to be true, until the crypto stuff generally got moved into the US main (on the assumption that the US would never re-introduce silly draconian laws. Oh. Oh dear, never mind), so now if you live in a country where they still have laws against crypto, then you have a bit of a problem using Debian CDs now. These days, non-US is mostly for things that are governed by US patent law, or perhaps DMCA infringing stuff, although people seem a bit timid about uploading, or perhaps hosting that sort of thing for some reason. Anyway, we should probably call CD1 CD1_US, CD1_NONUS CD1, and have things like patent.debian.org, dmca.debian.org etc. instead of just non-US.debian.org, and still consider the amalgamation of all the main sections on all of them to be the one true Debian, even if it turns out that we cannot legally assemble that whole anywhere on the planet. Of course, if nobody actually cares about things like the fact that violent games are illegal in Germany (assuming they still are) then going to all that effort is not justified.

Re: nfs for lan for DVD
Hello to the list. A DVD goes too slow for ftp on jigdo. Maybe dump the list file to ftp first and then jigdo it? Sort of a pik/jigdo combo? This is on a working Debian woody machine that makes debian-cd just fine. I have switched to a Debian woody machine with linux 2.4.18 >Maybe now we get a >4 gig file. >We try again with local ftp. ftp slow: local ftp gets 10 files and then makes a 4.6 gigabyte DVD tmp file then the DVD tmp file disappears Then it gets 10 more files. Then it makes another 4.6 gigabyte DVD tmp file. This is sloww. 8858 file / 10 = 885 huge DVD files to make I now will use the kernel-nfs-server. I have switched to an nfs mount of the mirror and told jigdo to scan it as if it is an existing image or mounted CD. The work continues much much faster. Somebody needed to know...

Good to hear from you. a fine and helpful answer! Thank-you very much pbm. (I only lost a weekend) I will give it a whirl on 9000 files per fetch.

Bug#154751: MD5 Checksum Mismatches on 3.0 Release CDs
Package: cdimage.debian.org Version: 3.0 Hi, I downloaded the Woody ISO-Images and burned the CDs. While the MD5 checksums of the entire images did match I encountered checksum errors when verifying the single files on the CDs against the md5sum.txt in the root directory of the CD. The checksum mismatches appeared identically on my FreeBSD installation and on a Windows installation with a self done port of GNU md5sum. The problem also remained with a secondary set of CDs burned from the same images. You can find the error reports in the files attached (db1.err == Debian CD 1, db1n.err == Debian CD 1 non-US, ...) CD 6 and CD 7 did not produce checksum errors. What happened? How shall I continue? Thanks for your great work and regards, Norbert db1.err Description: Binary data db1n.err Description: Binary data db2.err Description: Binary data db3.err Description: Binary data db4.err Description: Binary data db5.err Description: Binary data

It's hard to say since you don't give any details. Generally speaking, jigdo has proven pretty robust - a corrupted file on your Debian mirror is more likely than a problem with the template file. If the file is by chance called "driver-4.bin", please upgrade to the latest jigdo version.

Games like Quake are not illegal, they're just not to be sold to minors and mustn't be publically offered for sale (AFAIK). Not that this would prevent the kids from playing them... But mp3 encoders are a good example; I think the patent is only valid in Germany, nowhere else.

Really? - this Should Not Happen(tm)! The tmp file is only created once, afterwards small parts of it are overwritten. Maybe you're using jigdo-lite 0.6.5 or earlier. Big file support in jigdo only works with v0.6.6 or later. > This is sloww. > 8858 file / 10 = 885 huge DVD files to make Additionally, you'll only get an error message at the end, not a DVD image...
